Hochul keeps telling us she is committed to homecare, but her actions speak louder than words. Call Hochul. Ask her to back up her words with actions that show #CareNOTProfits #FairPayForHomecare
We're in Albany today fighting to save CDPA. The proposal to eliminate all community based fiscal intermediaries and replace them with 1 corporation is a disaster.
Carl E. Heastie Governor Kathy Hochul don't cut out people with disabilities from our program!
#NothingAboutUsWithoutUs
Carl E. Heastie Governor Kathy Hochul Making such a drastic decision to cut CDPAP and go down to one FI without listening to stakeholder input is a mistake. Support #HCBS . Are cuts even necessary?? If so, there are better ways…NY Caring Majority 🍎 CDPAANYS
Hey Governor Kathy Hochul Sen. Stewart-Cousins Carl E. Heastie, as a paralyzed individual for 29 years, my FI has kept me independent. Your choice to limit options puts my freedom and life at risk. I refuse to go to a nursing home. #DisabilityRights Consumer Directed Action of NY
Eden joined us in the war room to speak out against cuts to CDPA and in favor of the Home Care Savings & Reinvestment Act! Governor Kathy Hochul needs to listen.
Assembly Member Linda B. Rosenthal “the #OriginalRosenthal” is with us in the war room to tell Governor Kathy Hochul and all of NY that #CDPAisEssential and that we need #CareNotCuts
We're in the war room Gustavo Rivera pleading with Governor Kathy Hochul not to cut her with the lives and livelihoods of CDPA consumers and the home care workers make their lives in the community possible.
Amy has been paralyzed 30 years. W/o CDPA, she would not be able to live at home. Governor Kathy Hochul: listen to her carefully. CDPA cuts might be $$$ on a spreadsheet to you, but they mean life or death for real NYers like Amy. #CDPAIsEssential #CareNotCuts youtube.com/shorts/bnk1NrS…
The President Biden has declared April to be Nat'l Care Worker Recognition Month -- meanwhile, Governor Kathy Hochul has declared all-out war on the NYers who rely on CDPA to stay out of nursing homes & earn livelihoods.
#CareNotCuts #CDPAIsEssential
On behalf of all NYers who are at risk -- Carl E. Heastie and Sen. Stewart-Cousins must REJECT Governor Kathy Hochul's cuts to CDPA. It is immoral & irresponsible to “balance” the budget on the backs of older & disabled NYers & their essential caregivers. #CareNotCuts #CDPAIsEssential
We appreciate David Weprin for supporting NYers who rely on CDPA and speaking out against Governor Kathy Hochul's plans to decimate this critical program. #CDPAIsEssential #CareNotCuts
Together with NY Caring Majority 🍎 - we will be in Albany on April 3 for what is hopefully the final push to STOP Governor Kathy Hochul from destroying CDPA.
Will you join us???

Thank you David & Ian for speaking on behalf of many parents of disabled adults who are serving as Designated Representatives and PAs. #CDPAisEssential because it keeps people like Ian, who has a TBI and is multiply disabled after an accident, able to thrive in the community.
